i walked the walk of my life today.
sam n i walked from kallang mrt all the way to bishan park. the nparks map said the route was 7km, but BECAUSE IT DINT HAVE INSTRUCTIONS ON DIRECTIONS either on the map or along the roads(ok, they did have huge footprints n signs, but they were only seen provided u're already on the right track and in the right direction)we kinda got lost a few times and i guess in total we walked about 8 km? somewhere there. (we walked back to her hse from the train station.) but not bad la. the wind was good. atmosphere, romantic enough.
when we were reaching the 5k mark:
sam:"mind over body, mind over body..."
me:"mind over bladder, mind over bladder..."
sam:"huh, u need to pee ah??"
me:"no la, just in case."
u see, there werent any toilets in sight. many HDB flats but no signs of public toilets. which made me regret not borrowing one from the bungalows we passed in case i need to answer nature's call in some ulu area with only the drains and the kallang river as last resorts. so anyway we finally caught sight of a stadium n decided to pop in to find toilets. and we found a sorta fitness centre, snooped in as though we were members-no one cared anyway-used the loo n refilled our bottles before strolling out, nice n refreshed. haha.
my goodness my sun burn hurts. it's even painful to laugh. my left cheek's redder than my right, reason being the direction the sun shone throughout our walk(we were following the river). sigh. n i have a sling back tan on my left shoulder. aiyooo so ugly.
yes sam, next time, sun block. and those contractors' pouches. haha.
good fun.
